Thanks everyone. I have a couple recurves, but this was to be my first longbow and I was really hoping there was a fix, but the Bow Hospital owner got back with me and confirmed that there was really no way to fix it and have confidence in it. The seller has agreed to refund the full amount. Monterey, I think you may be onto something as the seller was as friendly and communicative person as I've ever had the pleasure of doing a deal with. Thanks again everyone.
